At a distance of 12 billion light years from Earth, this is the most distant jet ever detected. In this image, north is up, and east is to the left. Scale:

Steam pile driver for foundation of Full-Scale Tunnel (FST). In 1924, George Lewis, Max Munk and Fred Weick began to discuss an idea for a wind tunnel large enough to test a full-scale propeller. Munk sketched out a design for a tunnel with a 20-foot test section. The rough sketches were presented to engineers at Langley for comment. Elliott Reid was especially enthusiastic and he wrote a memorandum in support of the proposed "Giant Wind Tunnel." At the end of the memorandum, he...

STS073-103-019 (20 October - 5 November 1995) --- This wide view gives an overall perspective of the working environment of five astronauts and two guest researchers for 16 days in Earth-orbit. At work in support of the U.S. Microgravity Laboratory (USML-2) mission in this particular scene are astronaut Catherine G. Coleman, who busies herself at the glovebox, and payload specialist Fred W. Leslie, monitoring the Surface-Tension-Driven Convection Experiment (STDCE).

Each year trillions of scaly, one-celled marine plants called coccolithophores slough off their microscopic plates, called coccoliths, and dump more than 1.5 million tons of limestone dust (calcium carbonate, or calcite) into the sea—the largest source of this material on Earth. This false-color image is the first data product of its kind: a map of monthly observations of calcite concentrations across the world's oceans collected by the <a...

A view of the Soviet Soyuz spacecraft in Earth orbit, photographed from the American Apollo spacecraft during the joint U.S.-USSR Apollo Soyuz Test Project (ASTP) docking in Earth orbit mission. The Soyuz is contrasted against a white cloud background in this overhead view. The three major components of the Soyuz are the spherical-shaped Orbital Module, the bell-shaped Descent vehicle, and the cylindrical-shaped Instrument Assembly Module from which two solar panels protrude.
